Chapter 554 Wei Wei Is In Danger?

Since I set foot in the hall, Elder Wu had been going on and on about me hiding something.
Helian Wei Wei flicked away the dust on the tip of her finger and composedly continued,
Could Elder Wu provide any evidence?

Upon hearing this, Elder Wu narrowed his eyes. With her sharp tongue and her ability to divert attention away from the main focus, he was right to not underestimate this girl any further.
Yet, she may be able to handle the inner household with her skills, but to argue with him in the Great Hall…
Huh, how reckless!
Elder Wu gradually opened his mouth,
I don’t have any evidence but I always had a question all these while. Everyone in the Capital have said that the Princess Consort’s personality changed drastically since falling into the river. The Princess Consort is no longer arrogant or ill-mannered and even those things that were produced by the Princess Consort were astounding. I could not help but wonder if the Princess Consort’s soul was stolen away by some sort of evil being. How does the Princess Consort explain this?


What does Elder Wu want me to explain?
The corner of Helian Wei Wei’s mouth curled up,
Because I was arrogant and ill-mannered, I was laughed upon for seven years. When my grandfather passed away, I was still young but I did not forget the Helian family’s ancestral teaching, that the Helian family will never produce any useless imbeciles. I cannot decide for myself but if Elder Wu wishes to see my arrogant and ill-mannered behavior, as long as the Emperor agrees to this, I could stain you with blood here and now. As for the things that I had made, you will have to ask my master, the Supreme Master, who had taught me too well to the point where some people see it as a problem.




The Princess Consort sure knows how to talk.
Elder Wu squinted his eyes and his hands were balled into fists.
Helian Wei Wei calmly smiled,
Elder Wu flatters me but I’m just a little arrogant and ill-mannered.


You…
Elder Wu clenched his fingers but released them again. A smile appeared on his face once again,
I never believed this but I just find it strange when I saw the Princess Consort’s behavior. Since the Princess Consort says so, then why don’t you simply agree to the chanting session which could prove your innocence as well.

Helian Wei Wei paused and before she could reply…

Elder Wu is right,
the Emperor who was sitting on the main seat said in a deep voice. The long term consumption of medicine likely had an effect on him as his facial features seemed to be worse than others. His eye bags were heavy and dark, giving an impression of a modern day drug addict,
It’s just a chanting session with the eminent monks for an hour. If you refuse any further, the meaning would be different…

It was a sensitive time and naturally Helian Wei Wei would not oppose the Emperor’s order.
She shifted her gaze sideways to glance at Elder Wu before saying to the Emperor,
Wei Wei would naturally not turn down the Emperor’s order. Yet, it’s too assertive for Elder Wu, who had no evidence whatsoever, to accuse Wei Wei of having my soul stolen away by some sort of evil being.


Please don’t dislike me for my attitude since possession is not something that can be taken lightly. However, if the Princess Consort is in good condition after all this, I will personally apologize to you.
The corner of Elder Wu’s eyes were tinted with glee when he noticed that Helian Wei Wei’s retorts were slowly getting weaker and weaker,
Princess Consort, please.

Helian Wei Wei’s crystal clear eyes darkened.
The little figure who was chewing off a bean paste bun looked to the left and right and he was about to start a fight when Helian Wei Wei stopped him.



It would be a real problem if the Princess Consort is still unwilling to move.
As Elder Wu finished this, many turned their attention over to her and fear was hidden in their eyes.

I heard that people who were possessed like blood. I mean, look at all those dead palace maids in the palace, didn’t all of them had their blood sucked dry?


You mean, Helian Wei Wei is really…


Who knows? We’ll know when the eminent monks start chanting.

Helian Wei Wei held the little figure’s hand and moved forward, kneeling on the place that was designated for her.

Third Aunt.
The little tiger-like figure held up the bean paste bun in his hand,
You should eat the bun first. Don’t worry, I promised Third Brother to protect you.

Helian Wei Wei smiled and pinched his puffy face,
Alright, I’m not worried. Why would I be worried when Little Seven is here?


I will tell Third Brother about what Third Aunt said.
The little figure took another bean paste bun from his chest and having noticed that his brother was not around, he asked very seriously,
Third Aunt, frankly speaking, am I more handsome and more capable than Third Brother?

Helian Wei Wei suppressed her laughter,
What do you mean?


If not, he wouldn’t ask me to do the butt dance. So, he must be jealous because I’m more charming than him!
The little figure tore a section off the bean paste bun with his teeth,
Hmph!



Helian Wei Wei was increasingly sure that these two brothers had the tsundere character build into them as she extended her hand to pat his hair.
It was then that countless mantra chanting rang in the hall.
She was very familiar with the mantra and every word surged into her ears…
Elder Wu’s poisonous gaze was eyeing her. Give it some time and she won’t be able to take it anymore…
Judging by the time, the Third Prince and the retired Emperor should be arriving soon as well.
He was excited to see how those two faces would turn out after discovering that the Princess Consort that they had carefully elected was possessed!
Yet, the smug look on Elder Wu’s face did not last for another minute.
His neck was seized by Baili Jia Jue who had strode in.
Baili Jia Jue’s speed was so fast that no one could react and they could only see a shadow that flashed by them.
When Elder Wu came to his senses, he realized that he was being held up from the ground.



Your, You Highness… Cough, you, what are you… doing?
Elder Wu struggled to breathe but he could not break free from the fear that had overwhelmed him. The suffocation was crushing him and without a second thought about his image, he pleaded with the Emperor,
Your, Your Majesty! Please, please help me!

The Emperor was not pleased either,
Third Prince! Put Elder Wu down this instant!


I wouldn’t mind letting him down.
Baili Jia Jue had a seemingly faint smile on his face. On the surface, he appeared to be very gentle but at the same time, he gave off a bloodthirsty air,
I want a valid explanation after he defiled my Princess Consort. Elder Wu, you are just an elder and it’s your duty to help the royal family to solve problems, so what authority do you have to threaten a Princess Consort? Hmm?

Elder Wu clearly knew how hard it was to deal with this person. This person was not afraid of the Emperor and it was very likely for this person to choke him to death then and there.
No, he must think of a plan!
Elder Wu was coughing non-stop and turning green when he rolled his eyes and desperately tried to tiptoe,
I, I promised the Princess Consort… Cough, if, if the Princess Consort is not possessed, I will personally apologize to her, cough… Your Highness, don’t you want to know whether if the Princess Consort is possessed or not?
